Litigators and even transactional types. Like telling adversaries, counterpartes and wrongdoers to go shit in a hat, and to hold such people to account..

So I don't really thing we need a corporate type in these times. Jack's problem was not that he was a lawyer. It was that he was small time, self absorbed, and prioritized currying favor and rubbing elbows with adversaries who ate his lunch. He also prioritized revenue whoring over all else at Notre Dame.

I have heard very good things about our new AD from people very close to him, so I am hopeful. I do think he is going to have to tell the SEC and ESPN and the ACC to fuck off in the near future.
